5'6 Aquille Carr High School Mixtape: Electric PG Ready for the NBA?

[@2013YOLO]

You have to respect the mans game. He probably puts twice the hard work as the guys he's playing against. You see John Wall already respects it

[@BatmanAD]

I'm so glad this dude that I remember playing wit or seeing him is going to the nba after all the wait. He's going to be just fine

[@justiceforjuicy6765]

Amari Drew I hope you aren’t a gambling man

[@timkojones4435]

aquille carr is da man!

[@baselinefilmz9006]

Y'all people on KZbin are so mad and haters because he is a pro at the game of basketball and you are at home sitting on your a** watching ballislife all day at least he has a life! He is about to be drafted in 7 days while u just sit and hate! He will dominate in the NBA JUST WATCH!!

[@justiceforjuicy6765]

Asa Williams yikes....

[@kiingquan1657]

the kings took a chance in isiah thomas in the 2012 nba draft as the last pick of the draft

[@beatsforscrapboyz8303]

isaiah thomas is only 5'8 but in a few years he's going to put a big impact on the nba

[@JamiuzsLive]

[@brownpanther2953]

[@mranytimeanywhere794]

And that he did averaged 29 points a game crazy you predicted that

[@ahmedeisa802]

Wow that’s not even edited

[@reynardguia3147]

Hard to tell what his dominant hand was...

[@jjmac27]

👌 He progressed the right way , NBA ready though .... I'll have to watch it

[@cool97579]

this dude is amazing i dont care what anybody says

[@denishaweaver-keaton5144]

Big Bro puts in work

[@canival317isback]

So we gonna act like Ty Lawson isn't 5'10 huh lol.

[@nasirramirez4892]

Wow that dominant right hand doe !

[@xaviermcfield]

Is it me or did this dude shoot like 4 times snd they skipped to the next scene every time

[@BeatsbyZay]

I think if he would've went to college his chances would be much better. All these guys saying he won't make it is doing nothing but adding fuel to his fire. You know how many people told this dude he won't make it because he's too small? He has elite talent which belongs at the next level. Regardless if he's a star or not he can play in the league.

[@jl5491]

It's going to be crazy when he proves all of y'all wrong

[@yslnuke5531]

Jaquan Lowery how u feel now

[@ph3nomx24]

D

[@ph3nomx24]

kvngjt aquille carr gone make one day just watch

[@CTS1661]

ph3nomx24 he’s nearing 26. I think he’d be loved overseas tho

[@justiceforjuicy6765]

Yikrd

[@ClimbtheMusic]

He got a sick style, old school game, with great positioning, but with way more speed.Just a bit too short.

[@remingtonkevane2787]

Did he shoot that at 0:42????????

[@lukeatthisshit]

hes a scorer and if he can score in the big leagues then he will be successful

[@remingtonkevane2787]

What if he dunked that at 1:53? DAMN.

[@brownpanther2953]

this man should be in the league now, nba team front offices are sleeping still and i dont get it, so what hes small, hes better than half their guys

[@ironmac10]

Thank you thank you thank you thank you. For outting on some mixes of Aquille but lets be real here if he gets drafted we all know hes not going to be a CP3 player more like Ramon Sessions

[@momocisse8701]

Come to St. Cloud Minnesota @ballislife

[@manegrindshard]

ok he can score...but a tape i really want to see is one of him defending tall lanky players and see how he does with that

[@maxbreuer3595]

great player *-*

[@kareemrichardson9608]

He is gonna make it really don't matter about height because boul got bounce . Who can guard him in da A nobody!!!

[@mjk6060]

Been in high school since 2006... LOL

[@justincordova5311]

He is good

[@ballardkid1]

I've been a big fan of Aquille since he was in high school. But as far as him in the NBA, I won't say it isn't possible but in reality it's not gonna happen. Pierre Jackson is 5'10 and is tearing the D-League, but no team wants him, so you can imagine what will happen to Aquille, at 5'6.

[@EmilioCuevas]

Pierre doesn't find his teammates will. I'm not saying aquille does, but neither does he

[@ballardkid1]

Emilio Cuevas Point is, he's still better and he's not in the league.

[@christophermoore5806]

Quills car was in the D-League. Now he's at China in the euro league.

[@ballardkid1]

Christopher Moore Pierre and Aquille both were in the D-League, only difference is, A.C. was released, Pierre wasn't and the only reason Pierre was in the D-League was because part of his contract said he was suppose to play overseas for a year.

[@christophermoore5806]

Ok

[@alberttaylor4186]

Should of been in the league 😢

[@GoatMeal365]

Nice vid, but a lot of his shots were cut off 🤷🏽‍♂️

[@中山ガバ]

0:34 1:07 1:18

[@davidhall4401]

I don't just watch mix tapes of Carr I've watched him in real games he can definitely play. Shooting is not his strong point, but dude won't getting ate up when he was in the d league. Just because he got released doesn't mean he's not good half of y'all didn't even see his games.

[@davidhall4401]

@Steph Boyarthree Absolutely you must be able to shoot. He needed to develop the ability to play comfortably without the ball. In order to accomplish this, one must learn how to shoot a one motion quick release catch and shoot three pointer without wasted motion similar to Klay Thompson or Reggie Miller. Carr should have went to college, rather than turning pro right away. He had the quickness and athleticism to play at the highest level, but he did not have the ability to run to a spot on fast breaks or catch and shoot off screens. He also needed to transition from pure scorer to facilitator like a Chris Paul, but maintain his scoring without the shoot first mentality. Carr could have accomplished these things if he had listened to Muggsey Bogues. Bogues knew Carr's fam because they all grew up in Baltimore. He urged Carr to attend Seton Hall so he could develop the intangibles to stay on the floor. Back tracking a little bit, shooting is not the only thing needed to play off the ball, but it's an essential ingredient when you're working to get open. Some people will come and say Westbrook or Dame doesn't play without the ball, but those guys are 6 ft 3 and athletic. When you're 5 ft 6 you must walk the straight and narrow to make it. With that being said, making poor choices and still playing in the nba g league at 5 ft 6 shows how good this guy was. He even got called up by the Houston Rockets, but was quickly released before ever having the chance to suit up. Besides shooting, which he wasn't atrocious at, Carr knew how to use his height to his advantage. He could shoot when his feet were set and knock down outside shots off the dribble. However, set shooting and shooting off the dribble does not make anyone a true shooter. Klay, Steph, Reggie, Ray Allen, Mark Price, and Dale Ellis were true shooters. James Harden is an exception to the rule for guys who don't specialize in shooting off screens or without the ball because he mastered shooting off the dribble and he's 6 ft 5. For 5ft6 Carr was a once in a lifetime player. There are other very good players such as Junior Robinson and Trae Jefferson who was one of the leading scorers in college, but noone at 5 ft 6 has done what this guy did in a long time and we probably won't ever see anyone like him again unless he possesses shooting and off ball ability.

[@davidhall4401]

@Steph Boyarthree Sorry for typing such a long response.

[@davidhall4401]

@Steph Boyarthree Exactly. He needed to stay at Seton Hall all 4 years. Boykins, Bogues, and Spudd stayed all 4 years. Boykins could shoot and play off the ball very well. Spudd was Aquille before Aquille, but had the pass first mentality and iq needed to survive the league. Muggsey was very similar to Carr also in terms of dribble drive penetration, but had the pass first mentality and iq. Bogues was also a steals magnet on defense who could knock down the midrange jumper. Carr could defend and get steals at a high level, but he didn't have the defensive mentality from watching him play. His coach should have taught him how to pay attention to small details on both ends of the floor. They asked too much of him on the offensive end from a scoring standpoint. Instead of averaging 30 plus, he should have averaged 25 and worked on using his teammates more. I know he won a state championship, but those small intangibles would have been preparing him for the long term.

[@TyTimes]

still think he should've went to seton hall

[@EmilioCuevas]

He had a daughter, needed that money

[@TyTimes]

Emilio Cuevas i know, but he would've been better looked at/respected.. he would've had a better chance being a first round pick and having great money for his kid.

[@talaf6616]

Emilio Cuevas he went to jail for hitting his gf

[@GE0N33._]

Y'all stop hating on dat man. That's the next Nate Robinson .

[@deeherfavoriteprod]

GOD bless🙏🏾😂

[@Kingofkings987]

he was even released from the D League...he'll need all the luck in the world to make it in the NBA

[@ItzMrFoe]

a dude at my after school told me he played him in highschool and aquilles team lost

[@MegaE123]

He is Kendrick Lamar's twin brother.

[@alacrity7285]

Earl Boykins

[@BigDoughBoy202]

All u ppl tlkn about Pierre Jackson jus stop bcuz Aquille alredy gave him 20 off the bench and took the ball from Pierre has nothing to do with his skills its his size nd style of play...Carr was offered over a million overseas fresh out of HS

[@tyresebonds3096]

So he's a 5'6 guard, michael carter williams is a 6'6 guard....

[@Nickalzz]

This is cool and all. I'm sure he's a decent offensive player. You can't really tell cause these are highlights but let's face it how in the world would he match up with half of the nba on d. Realistically he could stop a John Wall or even a shorter nba guard. The avg PG is like probably around 6'2 (speculation) that's like 8 inches. You can't out jump that kind of difference....maybe he could get some lucky blocks but he wouldn't be able to do that consistently or even get a good contest on a jump shot. I'm 5'9, sucks to be short but that's how God made us lol....he's fun to watch though.

[@laseomiguel]

Heart over height

[@CorleyWrightATL]

Anybody that compares his game 2 another ball player. Has never truly study the game of basketball. Im not saying this cause he short, n got handles, shot n pass the ball. But his game is like no 1 i have ever seen b4. Maybe Iverson. Maybe. N im talking Iverson versus Jordan A.I.

[@r3spectproductions252]

he plays in china hes been out of high school for like a year

[@Kevthepromise]

Isn't he in the D- league? Just askin

[@ph3nomx24]

He ask to get release off dleague

[@sunjaypunjabi3299]

I hope he gets drafted but honestly I don't think he will

[@pimpdrew719]

My only problem with him is that he has no left hand

[@ironmac10]

And he might not have needed it in high school but he's DEFINITELY gonna need it if he goes to the NBA

[@jkweezy12]

dewitt mcintyre No. James Harden has only taken a right hand lay up once is his career. Tony Parker doesn't use his left. Austin Rivers doesn't use his left. It's not a NECESSITY, but it is helpful.

[@ironmac10]

But a person with aquille carr's height you need both hands

[@jkweezy12]

dewitt mcintyre Muggsy Bogues and Spud Webb didn't use their left. Nate Robinson doesn't constantly use his left. It's not a necessity

[@davidhall4401]

He definitely has a left hand. You don't just do what he does without it.

[@sharpchain_1862]

Carr is in the NBA now he's in D league

[@christophermoore5806]

Aquille Carr*

[@crtsbrown3]

He's not even projected anywhere in this years draft

[@jimmyhuajh]

He has to be a pass first point guard to make to the nba. Carr has always been a shoot first guard. We all know what he can do, but for his size, if he doesn't change his playing style, he will never make it to the NBA.

[@ironmac10]

I 100% agree with you he can score big time but can he do it with 6'7 225 lbs Small forwards in his face taught how to stop him

[@Bendaytoday]

dewitt mcintyre yea he bodied wiggins like 2 fuking time nigga

[@ironmac10]

Robens Innocent I would enjoy to see him do that in the D league or NBA not against uncoordinated clutzes. Not saying Wiggins is

[@TheBitchassalex]

Mugsy Bogues

[@wsbboxing4754]

NASI

[@babyboi0427]

He Could Still Go To College, Cant He? Eh

[@unknown2222100ify]

He's been out of high school for like a year. He's been playing in the D-league

[@MrForeverProphet]

Too short for nba Who he going to gaurd? NBA point guards would go for 30 and 10 every game on him

[@jacksonlong6743]

ya but he will be the smallest player in the nba he can play in Europe tho

[@clutchmamba1176]

y'all needa stop riding this dude already, he's not tall enough for the NBA. Case closed. They don't care how good your handles look or how many mixtapes you have. They want really talented hooper with IQ. not all that weak shit

[@EmilioCuevas]

Damn mugsy Boughes spud webb and boykins must of been shit too huh?

[@obie2hot4you]

And Nate Robinson :)

[@ballardkid1]

Emilio Cuevas Different generation bro, things changed sine then.

[@TheADHDcure]

Isaiah Thomas?

[@TheKrekRek]

That ain't weak! I'm surprised with his size how he finishes around way bigger defenders!

[@jagemobe]

They'd send all that shit to Palestine in the League. No layups, little fella. Excellent baller - maybe even incredible, but he needs 10-12 more inches because of his game - he's a shooting guard, not a point.

[@MrCleanMachine48]

everyone and their moms knows he not going to make it...no team wil even draft him

[@bhris275]

He didn't even go to college he went to china, and then the D-League. This dude was ass in the d-league as well always tryina cross someone over and ball hoggin.

[@Kelvon499]

He's good but he won't survive in the nba!

[@ap7820]

Theses are just highlights of his good plays just like in the NBA they have top 10 plays of players which is also called highlights ..well this his his highlights of his good plays and scores ... he's probably not that's good ..He can't make it to the NBA he's too much of a street baller , he has no iQ , NBA doesn't just look for scorers , and handling skills .. He had to have at least Pg skills and he don't have it ..

[@spectre4962]

He is too slow
